Mission:America.
Questions/Issues Discussed:
Is the LGBTQ+ lifestyle a perversion and an abomination in the eyes of God? Are fornication and adultery also a sin? Linda reveals that at one time she was a Progressive Agnostic and how God changed her life…
Why does Mission:America focus on the latest cultural and social trends in our country and what they might mean for Christians?
Have GLSEN and other LGBTQ+ groups been successfully indoctrinating and influencing the next generation for decades? Linda discusses their goal 25 years ago and just how far it has gone so far. She also urges parents to become more involved in what their kids are being exposed to in public schools.
PART 2 OF 2 - THEY DO IT. WHY DON’T WE?
Discussed by Linda Harvey
with Mission: America (www.MissionAmerica.com)
Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed may be upsetting or hard for little ones to understand.
Questions/Issues Discussed:
Has GLSEN bragged about already placing their selected 10-book sets in
over 3,600 schools across 28 states?
Linda discusses a few of the books, such as: “I am Jazz”, the book for
small children about a boy who wants to become a girl; “Stonewall—a
Building, an Uprising, a Revolution” for 3rd to 5th graders about the
beginning of their movement; “Queer There and Everywhere: 23 People who
Changed the World” for 6th to 8th graders; and “Felix Ever After”,
which is a raunchy, vulgar novel for older teens about a teen girl who has
already gotten a double mastectomy to appear to be a boy.
Linda makes this statement about “Felix Ever After”: “You do not
want your children to read this trash. It belongs nowhere near a school
building.”
Why should WE be working just as hard to send age-appropriate, pro-family
positive books to schools across the nation?

interview.
Questions/Issues Discussed:
How would Jeff describe the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) which
is steps from the United State Supreme Court? NOTE: Not mentioned in Jeff’s
comment, but mentioned in the article linked above, is that the pastor of this
church is a “white, non-binary-identifying pastor with the pronouns they/them”.
How would Jeff describe the other church mentioned in the Washington Post op-ed
– a Southern Baptist-affiliated church? Jeff shares several heart-warming
stories about congregants from this church…
Del Ray Baptist Church was almost “dead”. What happened between 2012 and 2022?
How did the church survive and thrive?
FRIENDS, VEGETABLES, AND MOVING
Discussed by Mark Lanier
with Biblical Literacy (www.Biblical-Literacy.com)

things just “odd”? Mark Lanier continues the Snapshots of Jesus series with a look at some “odd” Scripture passages from the Gospel of Matthew.
The focus this week is on:
Friends
Vegetables
Moving
Plus – A bonus on Friday!
To view Mark Lanier’s video for this lesson, click
here.
Questions/Issues Discussed:
FRIENDS: MATTHEW 11:16-19
What part of these verses does Mark find so odd? HINT: It’s not about Jesus drinking wine!
What does “friend” mean? Mark quotes Aristotle: “A single soul dwelling in two bodies.” The quote can be found in the book by Diogenes Laertius “The Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers”.
Why were tax collectors hated so much?
Who were “sinners”? Mark reminds us of Moses and the Promised Land.
What is the difference between wisdom and knowledge?
Why is it important to have good friends?
What are you like when you are at your worse? Do people still like you when you are behaving badly? Did you know that JESUS still loves you – even when you’re not at your best?

A BETTER MARRIAGE
Discussed by Pastor Jarrett Stephens
with Champion Forest Baptist Church (www.ChampionForest.org)
Day 2
Pastor Jarrett
Stephens continues the new series “FaceTime: Cultivating Genuine Connection”
with a sermon on building a better marriage.
NOTE: Pastor Jarrett is well aware that many people did not grow up in a loving, 2-parent household. He is also aware that many people are single, divorced, or widowed and may not have fond memories of marriage. However, he does encourage everyone to listen to this sermon because the marriage relationship is modeled after our relationship with Christ.
Find Pastor Jarrett Stephens’ sermon
here.
Scripture Passage: Genesis 2:15-25; Ephesians 5
Questions/Issues Discussed:
BUILDING A BETTER MARRIAGE: Complementary (Mind)
If men and women are created equal in the eyes of God, why are we so different? Pastor Jarrett uses The Trinity to explain…
Why is it important to be careful who we marry?
What is the ultimate purpose of marriage?
How did God prepare Adam for marriage?
Should couples celebrate their differences rather than try to squash them?
Scripture References: Genesis 1:27
